Are any of their locks coated to not chip paint? Like a Rhino Sprayed lock that does not scratch or harm the frame?

The black on the hook and the grey on the lockbar is a kind of rubbery plastic that offers some protection. The rest of the lock is panted black and has hard plastic slide ring that covers the keyhole.

Idk if all of them are or aren't but this one isn't. My bike is all scratched up.

No, it is a type of acrylic. Sometimes can chip (the lid of the one I bought did).

I don't believe there to be. It very much looks and has the feel of an unfinished nightstand I bought so I believe there is no coating. Is there a trick to knowing for sure? I'll gladly check.

We purchased the set in oil rubbed bronze but didn't keep it due to it being defective. We did not repurchase the set and I don't remember the particulars of the lock system.

Metal frames are powder coated to resist rust. U Wouldn't leave them out because the joints my rust if water sets In

The lock will weather, darking if exposed to sun and moisture. Any lock color will have this happen.

They will not scratch most bicycle finishes. They are hard plastic and I never had an issue on any bike with scratches.

Call the service dept and they will surely help. I have two of these on metal frame bikes and they can scratch, one thing you don't want to happen with carbon fiber. They have always been very helpful.

To me, the main advantage of the frame lock is that it is easy to clean. I have used mine to field dress wild game and it cleans right up. Other mechanisms using liners or bolts have more nooks and crannies to retain dirt, grime, blood, etc so I generally carry frame locks for hunting and fishing. For EDC in a clean environment, I don't think it matters - they are both bullet proof.

My dog nibbles the crate sometimes and the paint never chipped off. I also take it up and down my stairs and have banged it in the process and I anticipated chipping but it didn't! It really is pretty awesome

I don't think so, I received the cans and was very impressed by the quality. We lived in VA for a while, and it was very humid. No corrosion was noticed. If you are using them and they get chipped up, then I think a Rhinocoat would be a good solution, thanks for the idea.

I have had mine for over 5 months with no problems although the paint is starting to chip!

Yes. I used rim spray paint and its lasted longer then any of that paint youll buy at the hopy store. One of my best looking bodies too date

yes but this is what I preferred. If I got a painted one, I could see it chipping or getting scratched or fading. I could see painted ones hard to clean and with this I plan to use a natural cleanser to keep clean and safe for my grandchild. It does have a gloss on the wood. I like it a lot.

Yep. You'll get a sticker that has the unique serial number associated with the laser cut pattern of your locks. Three stickers actually, and the instructions explain to put one in the vehicle and one in a safe place outside the vehicle. Major selling point of McGuard locks to me. JackWAGON thief can't go to autozone to defeat the lock security. I also bought their door hinge locks. Same thing, and they are much lower profile than they appear in the Amazon photos.

If I remember right, I had to toss mine. It had 4 screws that were used to lock it on and only 2 of them were unlockable. As such I could not put it on the frame. I ended up going and getting the better known one, a Weigland(?) that worked like a charm. I would spend the money to get the better model if it were me. Sorry....my answer is negative

My RAM mnt u bolt came with a black anodized coating on it. I attached one to the handle bars on my ATV and one to my front utility rack. These work great and don't rust! I drive thru all weather conditions and this things still looks new. It holds super tight. Just torque down the u-bolt really snug and it won't budge. I use mine to hold my gopro, gps, or smart phone RAM case.
